Scarcity Mentality:

Stakeholders not engaged

Mission not widely understood or shared

Apathy

Confused leadership

Too many initiatives

Ineffective committees

6

The Problem

“Nonprofit executive directors are burning out and leaving the sector inalarming numbers. Meanwhile, emerging leaders are thinking twice about stepping into the breach. This is a great shame when we consider the extraordinary vision and values that drew these talented people into our sector in the first place.”
